List of fictional prime ministers

Real people on this list are marked:†

Prime Minister	Work	Medium	Year(s)	Actor	Notes	Ref.

Thomas Andrews	A Very British Coup	Novel	1982		Harry Perkins' predecessor as prime minister, Andrews was the head of a Conservative-SDP Government of National Unity which suffered a landslide defeat to Labour in the 1989 general election. Thereafter, Andrews served as the Leader of the Opposition.
	A Very British Coup	Television	1988	Roger Brierley	Andrews led a Conservative majority government to a landslide defeat in the 1991 general election following a banking sector crisis brought about by revelations of misconduct uncovered by Labour leader Harry Perkins. Andrews thereafter served as Leader of the Opposition. He was mentioned as representing the Surrey East constituency, and likely succeeded Margaret Thatcher (who was mentioned by Perkins as a former prime minister).
Herbert Attwell	Yes Minister	Television	1980–1984		The unnamed and unseen prime minister throughout the original series, he is mentioned by name only in companion books for the series. (His name would appear to be a portmanteau of three real prime ministers: Herbert H. Asquith, Clement Attlee and Arthur Wellesley.) Attwell appointed Jim Hacker as minister for administrative affairs upon becoming prime minister in "Open Government", principally as an act of revenge against Hacker for managing his rival's leadership campaign. In "Party Games", he unexpectedly retired after his home secretary and deputy was forced to resign following a spectacular drink-driving incident; Hacker surmised that Attwell held on to the premiership only to deny it to his then likely successor. Spending his retirement writing his memoirs, Attwell's sudden death in the Yes, Prime Minister episode "A Diplomatic Incident" saw his state funeral serve as an unofficial summit, during which Hacker discussed the terms of joint British-French management of the Channel Tunnel with the French president.
Alan B'Stard	The New Statesman	Television	1992	Rik Mayall	In the final episode "The Irresistible Rise of Alan B'Stard", a special general election is called over British membership of the European Economic Community. Alan B'Stard, as leader of the Eurosceptic New Patriotic Party, became an extra-parliamentary prime minister, having not contested a seat and having threatened to use his party's mandate to become a dictatorial Lord Protector (after his deputy leader Paddy O'Rourke suggested that he rather than B'Stard would become prime minister as a result).	[2][3]
Baldrick	Blackadder: Back & Forth	Short film	1999	Tony Robinson	After accidentally constructing a working time machine designed by Leonardo da Vinci so that his master Lord Blackadder could win £30,000 in a New Year's prank-cum-bet, Baldrick became the puppet prime minister to Edmund III of the United Kingdom after they used the time machine to manipulate history for their benefit.	[2][7]
Jack Barker	The Queen and I	Novel	1992		In this novel written by Sue Townsend, the leader of the People's Republican Party, Barker won the 1992 election through subliminal messaging organised by the television technicians' union. Upon becoming prime minister, Barker abolished the monarchy and forced the Royal Family to live on the Hellebore Close council estate. However, due to fulfilling expensive campaign promises, such as raising pensions and renewing schools, Barker announced that Britain was to become part of Japan (with himself as Governor General) in exchange for the suspension of debt repayments, with Prince Edward having to marry the Emperor's daughter as part of the agreement. At the novel's conclusion, the story is revealed to have been a nightmare, with the Conservatives under John Major winning re-election (as in real-life).
Lord Beaverbrook†	Dominion	Novel	2012		As a result of Britain entering into an armistice with Germany in 1940, Lord Beaverbrook served as Prime Minister in 1952, heading a collaborationist puppet government that came to power following a possibly fraudulent general election in 1950.

Due to drastic cardiac surgery, he was forced to stand down as Labour leader in 1991 in favour of his deputy and Chancellor of the Exchequer, Raymond Gould; however, he continued to serve as prime minister until that year's general election. His departure from office coincided with the abdication of Elizabeth II. Lord Broadstairs is his post-prime-ministerial title.

He dies after an enraged Pip throws him into Benevolent's Universe Destroying Device (one of many bizarre and violent deaths suffered by members of the Clampvulture family). Clampvulture's unfulfilled campaign promises included votes for horses and free jam.	[7]

Henry "Hal" Collingridge	House of Cards	Television	1990	David Lyon	Succeeding Margaret Thatcher as Conservative leader and prime minister, Collingridge leads his party to victory at the next general election albeit with a reduced majority. Citing the 'Night of the Long Knives' as precedent, Collingridge decides not to reshuffle his Cabinet. Being passed over for a promotion to the Home Office as a result, Government Chief Whip Francis Urquhart plots to replace him as prime minister out of revenge by fabricating a scandal involving Collridge's alcoholic brother and insider trading.

With Fison's newspapers falsely speculating on Perkins' health and suggesting overwhelming public support for Perkins's former chancellor Lawrence Wainwright (a co-conspirator) as prime minister, he uses a live national broadcast intended for the announcement of his resignation on grounds of ill health to reveal the blackmail conspiracy and to call an early general election.

It is implied that he was a Conservative, having succeeded real-life prime ministers David Cameron and Theresa May and mentioned several Conservative ministers as former colleagues. His attempts to restart his political career included joining with tech entrepreneur Scott Machin in establishing the Common Sense Party (which immediately backfired when Machin announced several eugenic policies at the party's launch event), and accepting the offer of a peerage (which was withdrawn after Tobin's conspiracy theorist sister sabotaged his investiture ceremony by playing a recording of him supposedly accusing the House of Lords of being lizard people).

After Perkins' resignation, Wainwright was elected leader by a majority of Labour MPs whilst Lord President of the Council and Leader of the House Jock Steeples was declared acting leader by the Labour Party National Executive. After the King appointed Wainwright as prime minister after the intervention of DI5, civil disruption and abortive legal proceedings against Wainwright ensued. After replacing the entire Cabinet (with Steeples turning down a minor position), Wainwright abandoned Perkins' policies not already implemented, including British withdrawal from NATO, nuclear disarmament, withdrawal from the Common Market, and the dissolution of newspaper monopolies. In The Friends of Harry Perkins, it was revealed that he served for only two years as prime minister before Labour fell from power.
